Modern Compiler Design (World wide series in computer science) - Softcover

Von der hinteren Coverseite

A compiler is one of the most vital parts of a computer?s system software, translating programs written in a high-level language into low-level commands that the machine can understand and execute. Most compiler design books focus only on techniques for imperative (or procedural) languages like C or Pascal, whereas Modern Compiler Design also covers compilation techniques for object-oriented, functional, logic and distributed languages. Features of the book include:

• A focus on essential traditional and advanced techniques common to all language paradigms, giving readers the skills required for modern compiler construction.
• Coverage of all the major programming language types - imperative, object-oriented, functional, logic and distributed languages.
• A practical emphasis on implementation and optimization techniques, including tools for automating compiler design.
• A strong intuitive style, illustrated by many practical examples.
